Scott,
One solution is to completely shade the area. You can get a big silk screen to cover the top of the whole shoot and provide an even soft light that will be more consistent.

Jonathan,
When you go to New Project, there should be a screen with folders on the left and settings on the right. There should be some NTSC and PAL folders, but also Panasonic 24p. No?
